The frame of Side Table 915 is made of two elegant loops of lamella. Both top and bottom shelf are composed of pressed birch plywood. Their upturned edges contribute to the table's distinctive look while ensuring all items remain in place. Exceptionally lightweight and durable, Side Table 915 possesses the pleasing, fluid curves that are a signature of designer Alvar Aalto's work. Designed in 1932, Side Table 915 was originally created for the Paimio Sanatorium, Finland.
Alvar Aalto was a highly talented architect and an eager spokesman for the international modernist movement. Aalto's designs were innovative and radical and became known for his experimental approach to bending wood, which greatly influenced American designers Charles & Ray Eames and Finnish-born Eero Saarinen. His style became known as humanist modernism. Alvar Aalto's dialogue with nature, architecture, design and the human being has become a living legacy.
The framework is natural lacquered with choice of shelving color.
